Mr Stewart said re-entry to Grosvenor mine was a matter for industry regulator Resources Safety and Health Queensland and the independent Mines Inspectorate.
“Queensland now has the toughest mine safety and health laws in the world, and I stand ready to continue reforms where and when the evidence shows they are needed,” he said.
“The Palaszczuk Government has demonstrated its commitment to mine workers with the greatest suite of mine safety and health reforms in 20 years.
“The government continuously engages with all stakeholders, including the CFMMEU, when it comes to mine safety.”
An RSHQ spokeswoman said Grosvenor mine continued to provide updates about its risk assessment for re-entry to the mine.
